Ready To Go Home Lyrics - Hank Williams Jr.

I went to church with my mom once and they had an evangelist visiting who told the congregation that he was once a drunk and was doing drugs. at a party, someone was playing hank williams and the song "ready to go home" started playing. he listened to it for a bit and he said that the way hank sang it made chill bumps come up and that he threw the bottle down and left. he said that one song totally changed his life. so here it is, enjoy! 

Ready to go home 

(e)theres comin a day when the (a)world shall melt a(e)way 

And jesus shall come to claim his (b7)own 

No more (e)tears, no pain, no woe, in this (a)wicked world be(e)low 

Then will you be (b7)ready to go (e)home 

(a)will you be ready to go, ready to go home 

To live with him up there around the (b7)throne 

When he (e)says come unto me, will your (a)soul be clean and (e)free 

Then will you be (b7)ready to go (e)home 

In this world of greed and hate will you (a)wait til its too (e)late 

To claim the saviour for your (b7)own 

For hes (e)coming someday, to (a)bear your soul a(e)way 

Then will you be (b7)ready to go (e)home
